Abstract

Recently the computer program “A Computer Solution for Hydrostatic Bearings with Variable Film Thickness,” used to design the hydrostatic bearing of the 70meter antennas, was modiffed to improve the accuracy with which the program predicts the film height profile and oil pressure distribution between the hydrostatic bearing pad and the runner. This article presents a description of the modiffed computer program, the theory upon which the computer program computations are based, computer simulation results, and a discussion of the computer simulation results.
